Reckless breaks a duopoly in a historic computer chess shake-up – Chessdom
For years, the top tier of computer chess has been defined by a familiar rivalry: Stockfish versus Leela Chess Zero. But in a dramatic and unexpected turn, that era has just been disrupted. For the first time in many seasons, the prestigious Top Chess Engine Championship Superfinal will not feature the long-standing clash between those […]

TCEC is a computer chess engine tournament where chess engines compete in long time controls on strong hardware. Every game is played from a slightly uneven starting position (“book moves”), to avoid all games ending in a draw. In order to make this fair, the engines play each starting position twice, once with the white piece and once with the black pieces. Reckless won League 1, got second place in the Premier Division, and will now play 100 games in the Superfinal against Stockfish (who has won the last 11 Seasons…). Time controls are 120’+12". * Reckless: https://github.com/codedeliveryservice/Reckless [https://github.com/codedeliveryservice/Reckless] * TCEC: https://tcec-chess.com/ [https://tcec-chess.com/] * List of engines competing in season 29 [https://wiki.chessdom.org/TCEC_Leagues_Season_29_Engines] * Tournament rules [https://wiki.chessdom.org/TCEC_Leagues_Season_Rules]

The 6.19 kernel has been released
The 6.19 kernel has been released - Lemmy.World
Summary: Linux 6.19 adds a new listns(2) system call that makes much easier to list the namespaces present on the system; support for the Live Update Orchestrator, which allows to reboot a kernel via kexec while enough kernel state to allow virtual virtual machines continue working after a reboot; support for PCIe Link Encryption which lets PCIe devices encrypt its communication with confidential VMs; Btrfs support for the experimental shutdown ioctl and suspension during scrub or device replaces; Ext4 support for block devices larger than page size and faster online defragmentation; support for the color pipeline API for better and faster HDR graphics; improvements to io_uring; and support for the SFrame format that brings faster frame unwinding. As always, there are many other features, new drivers, improvements and fixes. (Summary copied from the changelog at kernelnewbies.org/Linux_6.19 [https://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_6.19])
